Nick Cannon and Bre Tiesi had something extra special to celebrate this Easter!

Cannon, 41, and Tiesi, 30, who are expecting a baby together, celebrated the holiday on Sunday in a festive manner, with Tiesi sporting "Happy Easter" written in red lipstick across her pregnant belly while Cannon surprised the mom-to-be dressed in a head-to-toe Easter Bunny costume.

After Cannon's initial surprise, where he adorably hugged Tiesi's grandmother, the couple shared a sweet, impromptu maternity photo shoot on the model's Instagram Story, in which Cannon cradled Tiesi's stomach as she smiled wide. "Just had the best visitor!" she captioned the photo.

Cannon and Tiesi announced they were expecting back in January. The baby boy will be Tiesi's first – and Cannon's eighth – child, and the pair's first together.

Before their Easter photo shoot, Tiesi and Cannon took some glamorous professional maternity shots, which Tiesi posted to her Instagram on March 29.

Tiesi also shared some solo shots of her nude, pregnant silhouette, alongside a message to her son. "You have already changed everything about me mentally, physically and spiritually," she wrote." I had no idea how much I needed you. You were the final puzzle piece. I will love you for eternity."

Cannon and Tiesi's birth announcement came shortly after Cannon faced family tragedy when his son Zen, whom he shares with ex Alyssa Scott, died in December 2021 at just 5 months old after being diagnosed with brain cancer.

Zen's health troubles began shortly after his birth when doctors found a malignant tumor and a buildup of fluid inside his head that required surgical intervention.

"We were faithful and hopeful for that time," Cannon said of his and Scott's mindsets at the time while discussing the loss on his talk show. "We carried on, [Zen] was still just playing with his brothers and sisters, I embraced every moment."

Cannon also shares 10-year-old twins Monroe and Moroccan with ex-wife Mariah Carey, 5-year-old Golden "Sagon" and 1-year-old Powerful Queen with ex Brittany Bell, and 9-month-old twins Zion Mixolydian and Zillion Heir with ex Abby De La Rosa.
